Navig@te back to th€ roots of thïš substance at n0v^lebookNicole dumped everything in her hand and, without even looking at her assistant, stomped away from the
stage.
The young assistant instantly burst into tears. She was at a complete loss of what to do.
Stella closed her eyes and sighed.
“What is the situation?” she asked.
“The organizer wanted her to give a short performance,” the assistant replied. “She was supposed to
play the piano
“”
Her words were interrupted by brief pauses because she was sobbing so hard, but Stella still managed
to grasp the gist of what she said.
“So you’ll be alright as long as you get someone to go up there and play the piano, right?”
“Well, I guess…
>>
Nicole was not that famous after all, so it didn’t matter much if someone else performed in her place. But
where on earth could she find another gorgeous lass who doubled as a piano player to replace Nicole?
“Do you have a dress or some other kind of costume?” Stella asked. “I’ll quickly change into it and play in
her
place.”“You?” the young woman looked at Stella with surprise.
She went on to observe Stella more closely and was a little
stunned. There was no doubt that this woman was very
beautiful indeed. She might not even need the makeup
because she was such a natural beauty, and her facial features were definitely superior to those of
Nicole Douglas.
“But…” the young woman hesitated. “Can you actually play the piano?”
Evidently, she had been paying little attention to the classical music scene.
Stella felt a little helpless. She was indeed not so famous that everyone in this city could recognize her.
“Yes,” Stella assured her. “Just tell me what she was going to play.”
The young woman realized that she had no other choice but to give it a try since she desperately needed
someone
to replace Nicole Douglas right now. At the very least, it
would be better than being publicly mocked and criticized.
And so she decided to agree to Stella’s plan.
“Okay,” she reluctantly replied through gritted teeth. The dressing room is backstage. Follow me.”
When Nicole noticed that Stella really was going to perform in her place, the anger that had accumulated
inside her almost exploded. She scowled at Stella, anticipating for her to make a fool of herself.“(
Stella swiftly changed into the costume and followed the young woman up onto the stage. She glanced
at her watch and realized that she had just enough time to perform this song before dinner.
Once she was up there, the organizer grimaced and went offstage to ask the assistant, “What the hell’s
going on? That’s not the woman who’s supposed to be performing!”
“I’m sorry, but something came up, and this lady stepped in just in time and agreed to help out…”
“But can she really play?” the organizer asked, full of
skepticism.
After all, even Nicole Douglas, who had been rehearsing here over and over again, could barely pass as
palatable. It
was clear at a glance that she was a complete amateur
who only accepted the job for the money.
Because of that, he assumed that all these entertainers were the same–a vapid, unprofessional lot who
got to where they were by relying on their good looks, skilled at hustling for freebies while lying to the
public and their
fans.
Naturally, he assumed that Stella was no different.
The assistant shook her head. Her face grew pale.It was not that she didn’t trust Stella, but in this situation, it was simply impossible that she didn’t worry
about what was going to happen.
Stella glanced at the noisy crowd in front of the stage. She was completely calm as she placed her
fingers on the piano keys and gently pressed them.
